Rock out to the beat of your own flexible drum. Unroll this portable drum kit to play on the go. Jam to real drum sounds, including pedals for bass and hi-drum. Record and play back your masterpieces or use headphones to practice, then hook up to an external speaker to show off. You can rock and roll up virtually anywhere.

This super smart keyboard will teach you how to play—like an effective, patient teacher. Sync your device to the keyboard and your hands to the keys, where LED lights integrate seamlessly with the screen and guide you with step-by-step and hand-by-hand instructions. Pick from the library of videos and digital sheet music as you make your way from Twinkle Twinkle to one of Mozart’s concertos. You can stop, rewind, and slow down whenever you want. And when you’re not practicing, use your keyboard as a speaker to stream music.

Bouncy, float-y fun from a super-lightweight inflatable ball made for safer indoor play. Blow up Ollyball’s shock-absorbing core and secure it inside the durable outer shell, and then let the kids have at it. Need a playtime time-out? The ball can be colored in with markers or crayons.

Build a maze as fast as you can—the trickier the better—because your opponents have to navigate it. In this fast-paced, fun game, players build mazes with foam shapes on magnetic boards and swap with the competition. Use logic, speed, and engineering skills to stump the other players. Whoever gets through the end—and back—first wins.
